A must for those who enjoy the music of Morton Gould.

This recording offers a tantalizing sampling of Morton Gould's work from the vibrant decade of the mid 1930s and '40s, featuring two of his trademark Symphonettes, the gutsy Concerto for Orchestra and his earliest big orchestral work -- Chorale and Fugue in Jazz -- presented in full for the first time since its 20-year-old composer wrote it with Interplay, the diminutive concerto holding center stage.

Review:

"It is with great pleasure...that I welcome this release by conductor David Allen Miller and his Albany Symphony Orchestra. ...This is a marvelous disc and I recommend it unreservedly." (Scott Morrison)

"...this disc is so much fun and was so much needed. Only 'squares from Delaware' should stay away. All others can join in the jamboree." (Fanfare)
